Another epic Grace Villa expedition ​#Kidepo4GraceVilla

In the month of love, an eclectic group of individuals embarked on the adventure of a lifetime. Athletes, non athletes, adventure seekers, well wishers came together to climb Mount Morungole for a beautiful cause: to raise awareness & fundraise for Grace Villa home for orphans and vulnerable girls. This time, Grace Villa also gave back to the Ik, a vulnerable people, the least integrated community in the Karamajong region who live atop the mountain. They are so isolated that they only recently had their 2nd university grad ever. Each climber will be asked to bring an item to give to the Ik children.

In our ad, we said: "Puse yourself to new extremes and experience this life changing challenge in one of the world’s most breathtaking places which - CNN Travel called "Possibly the most picturesque savannah in Africa”.

Most had never met before, but after spending a day climbing, falling, laughing, crying & ultimately celebrating this climb. But by the time they were done, as we predicted, a new "family" was born. The Kidepo4GraceVilla family. Watch this space for the next EPIC adventure!
